SPECIALIZED STUDY GROUPS
updated Jan 29, 2012
|
A popular activity within BNAPS are the many study groups (listed below) that afford members the opportunity to communicate with other members sharing similar interests. Each group publishes its own newsletter in which group members can exchange opinions, ask questions, and report findings. The information published in study group newsletters can lead to the production of specialized handbooks by the BNAPS Publications Committee. Study groups usually meet at least once a year at the Annual Convention of the Society. Each group has its own elected officers and minimal dues, which help to cover printing and distribution of the newsletters. Membership in BNAPS entitles you to become a member of as many study groups as you wish, with the first year's dues for one group provided free of charge by the Society. In order to view some newsletters, you must have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed. NOTE: SOME BACK ISSUES OF NEWSLETTERS OF SOME STUDY GROUPS CAN BE FOUND AT: THIS LOCATION.
